Successful Multi-Play Market Strategies

May 2008 (34 pages)

Convergence in telecommunications markets has been one of the key themes of the 21st Century. Most MNOs have been impelled to follow some kind of multi-play strategy.

  • Some are currently providing dual-play propositions.
  • Others have chosen to provide quad-play products including mobile, home line, TV and broadband.
By following these strategies MNOs now find themselves in direct competition with a range of service providers including cable operators, content providers, PTOs and ISPs.

This report examines the offerings of the major operators in the key markets, the products they are delivering and which are likely to be the winners and losers in the fight for the customer. The report concludes with a range of concrete recommendations that MNOs and MVNOs need to consider as they develop their own competitive response to the evolving convergent marketplace.
